Question: Who are war mongers?
Details. We entered:
WWI with Wilson, a Democrat, in the White House.
WWII with FDR, a Democrat.
Korea with Truman, a Democrat and only President to order the vaporization of 2 cities of civilians.
Viet Nam with Kenndey/Johnson, Democrats, and Kennedy orders the sanctions against Cuba that are still in place today, though that gets laid at Republican feet too.
Kosovo with Clinton and the 1st WTC attack.
With Carter, a Democrat, US hostages were held for 444 days by Iran and the "incident" with USS Pueblo.
Reagan, Republican "war monger" was sworn in and 48 hrs. later the hostages were on their way home from Iran and Berlin wall falls without a shot fired (big stick works).
Nixon, conservative crook (really) ended the Viet Nam war and began normalized relations with China.
Bush 41, a Republican took us to a war, that was over in 9 days.
I always see Dems telling Reps to look at the facts. OK, there are the facts.
Dems answers?

If the Iranians, released the hostages after 48 hrs, of Reagan entering office, this only means that the republicans, licked some body's *** in Iran, behind the scenes, and the deal was to keep the hostages, until democrats were out ! there can be no other explanation, other than pure luck ! & I don't believe in luck !
- it is common belief that Kennedy wanted to end the Vietnam war, and was assasinated, for that reason !
- WW1 and WW2 were forced upon the world, America, only enetered WW2, after it was attacked !
- Bush senior started the blodiest war since Vietnam on America, without USA ever being attacked by Iraq, it has lingered on to today, and has defaced USA in international eyes the most, ever !
USA has never been so humiliated, or lost face and authority, to this extend in its entire history !

Misleading and false, like every conservative argument!
Before engaging in WWI and II, those presidents held off until we were attacked.
Truman didn't order the vaporization of 2 cities. It was FDR. And that wasn't in Korea. "Truman, a Democratic president, was under severe domestic pressure for being too soft on communism, among others, by Republican senator Joseph McCarthy. Especially outspoken were those who accused the Democrats of having lost China to the communists." - wikipedia
It was the Republican Congress that demanded the Korean War
Eisenhower got Vietnam started. Dems forced Nixon to withdraw.
Recently released documents show that Reagan offered the Iranians a deal to keep the hostages (which they were planning to give back anyway) until after his election.
Clinton had Kosovo over quickly with almost no civilian deaths and zero American casualties.
Bush has gotten us into 2 wars so far...both of which we are still fighting...and he wants to attack at least 3 other countries. THAT is warmongering!
Don't forget that Bush I attacked Iraq for invading Kuwait, after US ambassador to Iraq April Glaspie told Saddam "We have no opinion on your Arab-Arab conflicts, such as your dispute with Kuwait. Secretary Baker has directed me to emphasize the instruction, first given to Iraq in the 1960s, that the Kuwait issue is not associated with America.", and Iraq was invading Kuwait because they had been drilling diagonally into oil reserves inside of Iraq.

in ww2 there is actually proof that fdr knew it was coming and let it happen. we should have kicked japans ***, but getting involved in european war? theyve been killing each other almost as long as the muslims have. should have just let them and then saved some money on the (failed) montgomery plan.

The Democrats today bare little resemblance to the JFK Dems. So, really those were all Republicans by today's standards.

I love your WW2 example.
We get attacked, and you don't want us to defend ourselves. All Presidents have used the miltary!
Too bad your friend Bush couldn't do the 1st gulf war right! Another halfass job by the Republicans!
And Reagan did not tear down the Berlin wall. The Germans did, while Bush was President! GET YOUR HISTORY STRAIGHT!!

Democrats kick *** and take names!
"The Bush Administration said there will be a delay in restoring a newly elected democratic government in Iraq. However, they said the delay will not be as long as the one we have had in this country."

If there were no economic benefits to war the US would be as tame as a mouse.
